Personal Quote:

I think there being a first black princess is going to be amazing for people of all backgrounds. Situations change, and they become extraordinarily challenging and sometimes hurtful. But the point of a Disney movie is that you can overcome these things, somehow, someway. See more »

Trivia:

Her Dreamgirls character, Lorrell Robinson, is supposed to be the youngest of the trio, but in reality Anika is actually older than both Beyonce Knowles and Jennifer Hudson. See more »
